The exact value of the minimal distance between (0, 0, 0) <strong>and</strong> (5, 6, 7) can<br />

easily be found from the Pathagorean Theorem as<br />

This value can be compared to the 10.794 that was obtained from Dynamic Programming<br />

approach. This difference is consistent with previous comments which were<br />

made on the accuracy of Dynamic Programming solutions <strong>and</strong> the effects of<br />

discretizing the space.<br />
